Server Laggginnnn?

[doeda]

^

[shams]

Pretty sure, my little monk got pwnt by a griffon because of it and now I can't seem to log back in...

[Calibix]

Yeah, I keep DC'ing and I never DC.

[UrsusMajor]

And I'm dead.

[Yumyums Inmahtumtums]

Charmed pet. Now dead :(

[backman_66]

Seems very similar to a DDoS, but my spells still go through after like 30 seconds.

[Kaleadar]

yes its lagging hard. Kept getting DB - invalid password... on the log in screen. 2 min to zone once i got on. Fun times, keep at it is all i can say.

[Lisset]

I can't even mem spells now. Also dead.

[Calibix]

Yeah, I keep DC'ing and I never DC.

[Buellen]

still logged in but take 15 to 30 sec to begin attack a mob i have engaged.

[Kaleadar]

forums are lagging as well. So its more then just the game itself. Iv not check EQEMU to see if its effected also.

[backman_66]

It's the year 2014 and mankind still can't stop a DDoS attack like this? WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO?

[odiecat99]

I cant even get in so who knows

[backman_66]

Lag is gone now. Spells cast instantly. Gonna try zoning..

[backman_66]

Nevermind it's bad again.

[odiecat99]

DDoS hard to stop TBO

Someone doesn't understand how DDos'ing actually works

[Greegon]

[ripwind]

The good news is I gave headlice to Ddosattack when he passed me in the EC tunnel. So, jokes on him!

[Shaakglith12194]

What's going on? Is it a DDoS or something else?

[Eunomia]

i died and i need a rez

We'll give it a shot

[Eunomia]

Is it a DDoS or something else?

Yes

We've got to hold on, ready or not
You live for the fight when that's all that you've got

[hatelore]

Could use a res too in hole on rapidfist =/ Horrid lag

[UrsusMajor]

3rd death tonight, 2nd due to server crashing.

[Burrito]

http://youtu.be/QmvL7fgp7TM

Just going to watch this a bunch and am imagining this as an epic battle between server admins and the ddoser.

[syris226]

We'll give it a shot

Send one my way too - Skellz!

[Dakidd4990]

Can we expect GM rezzes to be coming around or should we seek out regular 96% rez? If we get a 96% can we still get a GM rez afterward?

[Whiteberry]

corpse of Uncharted is in unrest please do when u get a chance and whay should i do can u rez past rez timers? or should i log out

[follier]

I don't get it ... truly a DDOS? God why? What makes p1999 a target?

[tristantio]

Disgruntled players.

[UrsusMajor]

This server is so borked right now.

Anyone else up for a double XP weekend cause of all these crashes?

[Burrito]

I got to my 2nd corpse and I'm standing over it trying to drag it to the front of Unrest but it keeps giving me the error that it's to far away. This server is so borked right now.

Anyone else up for a double XP weekend cause of all these crashes?

First suspect- ddos's server in order to obtain double xp weekend /sarcasm

[follier]

Jeez people crazy. I've worked operations in major retail ecommerce environments for seven years and I've only seen two DDOS attacks.

Come here and people are like, "Oh bloody hell, not another one!"

Man you guys really pissed off the script kiddies somehow.

[UrsusMajor]

Oh please...

No it's the 3rd death I've received due to whatever the server is going through right now. Get my body, try to xp, server crash, rinse repeat.

I'm through tonight with this.

You do know that the server did have a DDOS attack a few months back by a rival EQ emulator don't you?

[follier]

Had no idea this was a thing.

I'm new around here =/

[rollin5k]

monthly console gaming night! stoked!

Don't underestimate the potential of possibly the nerdiest community on the web

[sonicjoose]

The lag is back and your

[backman_66]

DDoS'er needs to fight me irl and lose.

[Psychok]

This ddos/lag/whatever is happening entirely too often - making me miss live (kinda).

[NextGenesis88]

Whoever is doing it is a sad human being. Pathetic really. I want to laugh, but I am too irritated, but when you try to picture a little nerd deploying this tactic it becomes a pretty hilarious image. Then I picture every P99 player smashing their keyboards like that angry Russian kid. It's 1 am and I just want to get my elf on yo!~

[BlehMaestro]

Have they been doin GM rezzes tonight?

[tristantio]

I only have 25 minutes on my corpse from first lag death (and another corpse from this second one) both in Felwithe. Should I sign out and not sign in again until more GMs are online?

It has been 2.5 hours and no rez :(

[NextGenesis88]

They can't 2 box and get banned for it so they must unleash the dogs and ddos. With all the rage of people complaining and arguing for two-boxing I wouldn't be surprised. "WHAT? You can't two-box? That's so fuckin gay dude. We could do it on live. Shit server and shit community." "Fuckin server sucks, I got banned for two-boxin. Gay as shit and not classic, they gonna wish they never messed with a guy like me and maybe their pop would go up if they allowed it." "I got away with it on live and fooled the GMs so I can definitely fool some tool running a server in his mom's basement." thinks he was ninja and leet. cept live allowed boxing.

Logic



Either way I always think to myself there has to be someone gaining something from doing it. I mean in such a way that it helps exploit something or duplicate something. Or somehow it allows the big RMT guys to do their business unrecorded. It just has to be something like that. Someone with extensive knowledge on all the holes in the emulators for exploitation and IMO that sounds like someone else who would be running one and programs on them. Just my speculation, but that's all it is.

Your tinfoil theories are alluring, I must resist!

[Daldaen]

Everyone in my group crashed out last night and I ended up /quitting out with a charmed pet since /camp wasn't working. I wonder what I'll find whenever I get back on...

Sorry we didn't get to you sooner!

We are not restricted by resurrection timers nor corpse rot timers.

If we are not able to help you in your session, please petition next time you are in game and we will still offer resurrection for the corpse. Corpses are time stamped, so we will be able to find it.

We would appreciate it if you would please continue your game play if able, and allow us to resurrect when the petition queue is smaller. There are situations where players are not able to continue until assisted, and we would like to help those first.

[mgellan]

Thanks again for the rez Eunomia :)

[Man0warr]

Thanks for the hard work Eunomia!

I was once in a band whose most popular song was about 911. You could say we grew attached to our tinfoil head wear.
